Answer 1

Answer: $13.80

Explanation:

Mary ann spent $26.85 total on two new toys but had a coupon for $1.00 off her total purchase. Therefore, we subtract $1.00 from $26.85. This will be:

= $26.85 - $1.00

= $25.85

Shw then spend $1.75 on sales tax. Total coat will now be:

= $25.85 + $1.75

= $27.60

Since each toy coat same amount, therefore each toy will cost:

= $27.60 / 2

= $13.80
